In weather Live Mode, ASN will always automatically download the weather.

 

No, there isn't a way to refresh in ASN, but you can change the download interval to 5 minutes.

Oh well, it isn't a big deal anyways. Thanks everybody.

To refresh weather, go to Tools, debug window/ refresh weather

While we're talking, whats the average core load on ASN while its refreshing weather data?

 

Some of us are still on dual cores sadly and this figure is relelvant to me.

on my pc it usually shows 3% in the task manager and goes to 6% if i force a refresh, it's not at all noticeable during flight. if you're not sure, there's a free demo so you can try it out on your system anyway!

 

cheers

Actually that doesn't load new weather, but reloads previous loaded weather. The way to load weather from the server then go to manual mode is set the weather mode either to live or historical, after the load, then switch to manual mode, then you can modify the conditions as you see fit.

Ok, thanks Tom. Thought it did a new download. Learn something everyday

Is anyone else waiting for Rex 4 Weather Direct? It's supposed to be coming out later this year.

 

I tried ASN trial and liked it, but I wanted to see how the new Rex4 system compares.

best way to use ASN, is if you know what aiports or general direction you are flying, use the ASN flight planner, select the srat aiport and a  aiport in the direction yoy are flyin and then hit refresh, it will get all teh weather between the selected aiports, works really well and is how i generally use it.

ASN. Works great with my PMDG 777.

Okay with all the talk about FSXWX, I went to try it but it said it requires FSUICP, which I don't have.

 

Can anyone confirm that ASN doesn't require FSUICP either?

 

FSUIPC is only required for wind smoothing.

 

I only have the unregistered version of FSUIPC and no issues - apart from the occasional wind shift.

For ASN FSUIPC is not needed at all, in fact it's recommended all FSUIPC weather functions are turned off.

Not correct. ASN handles all smoothing and FSUIPC is not even necessary for anything ASN related.

Hi Stan have you tried the beta sp1 yet, just completed a short flight from kolm to kast in poor visability, 400ft ceiling, just managed to get the twinotter down through the fog,

I'm using dx10 and frames locked at 28, asn dense cloulds hardly dropped it.
